Mention menopause and what comes to mind? Hot flashes and weight gain, of course. But along with the hot flashes comes the inspiration for artistic expression through writing, jewelry making, painting, fashion design, and even millinery.

     According to the Canadian Women’s Health Network, there are changes that take place in a woman’s brain at midlefe. A shift in perspective occurs and thinking processes become more creative and less structured. This shift to right-brain thinking – the non-linear thought processes typically associated with creativity in art, music and writing – may account for the surge of creative output from women in midlife and beyond.

     Hot Flash Artist showcases women who’ve had corporate careers and raised families and are now finding the time to explore their creative side. Here you will find the latest news and articles about changing careers, starting a new business, health and fitness after 40, and even metaphysical topics.
